I found this rather strange. I agree with MRFF president Mikey Weinstein who said:

"The inscriptions could give the Taliban and other enemy forces a propaganda tool."
"I don't have to wonder for a nanosecond how the American public would react if citations from the Koran were being inscribed onto these US armed forces gunsights instead of New Testament citations," he said.

Silly fundies.

So our government claims that Muslims are 'irrational' for feeling like our country is waging some kind of holy war against them - an action which they are taught by their beliefs should be responded to with extreme violence - yet we have BIBLE VERSES on FIREARMS.  Is this company trying to kill US soldiers?  I can see the profit margin once I stop being repulsed and horrified, but the ignorance....oh the willful ignorance.

How awesome would it be if one of the verses turned out to be:

Proverbs 21:19 (New Living Translation)
It is better to live alone in the desert than with a crabby, complaining wife.
